How to size a Backwash Filter? To correct size a backwash filter, you will need to know the flow rate where the system needs to be installed. When looking at the system description, you need to make sure that you flow rate is greater than the backwash rate. This rate refers to the minimum flow rate needed in order for the system to backwash completely. If you don't meet this requirement, the media inside the filter does not get cleaned in its totality affecting the performance of the system. Once you determine that your flow rate is enough for the system to backwash, you want to consider what flow rate you would like the system to give you. Do this by looking at the standard flow rate specification. Please note that flow rate can be look at the amount of time it takes to fill out one gallon of water. It can be easily be confused with the water pressure. The backwash filters are design to decrease at most one to two psi of pressure which is not noticeable.
